It could've been just a simple slip of the tongue. Dari is an uncommon name that happens to sound similar to several other names. However, later in the broadcast, Nowkhah revealed that it isn't the first time Spurrier has botched his name.

After closing out an interview with Louisville head coach Bobby Petrino, who correctly called him "Dari," Nowkhah said that in the past Spurrier called him "Dory" and "Derry."

Nowkhah isn't the type of muckraking reporter that is likely to draw the ire of a coach.

However, given Spurrier's track record, anything is possible. There was an incident in 2011 when Spurrier had a public quarrel with Ron Morris, a reporter from The State. JimRomenesko.com chronicled the incident.

It is likely that Spurrier was just having a little fun with Nowkhah, as he often does while a microphone is in front of him.

Earlier this year, after he led South Carolina to a Capital One Bowl victory, he took the time to rip his team's in-state rival, Clemson.
